Musician

Brahim Fribgane

Born and raised in Morocco, Brahim Fribgane brings to his music the rich and varied musical styles he grew up with – North African, Gnawa, Berber, Arabic and Andalusian music. His oud style ranges from the clear, “singable” melodies of folkloric Berber songs to beautifully complex and soulful Arabic music, to the fusion of jazz, samba, reggae or Indian music.

Brahim grew up in a neighborhood in Casablanca, Morocco, where great musicians and bands emerged, like Nass Alghiwan and Lamchaheb. He absorbed the music played by these bands, as well as being influenced by the traditional music he heard since childhood. Brahim began playing for weddings and parties when he was 13 years old.

Club d'Elf: As Above - Live At The Lizard Lounge

Read "As Above - Live At The Lizard Lounge" reviewed by Doug Collette

by Doug Collette

The music of Club d'Elf's debut album, As Above, speaks volumes in terms of the group's mystical and stylistic roots. In fact, it is perfectly reflective of the actual ancient quote from which the title is taken; 'As above, so below...' suggests how the rhythm motifs are as fully and completely developed as the melodic themes. ...

Club D'Elf: You Never Know

Read "You Never Know" reviewed by Chris May

by Chris May

Near-death experiences can reboot the mind, separating the important from the trivial. It seems to have worked like that for bassist and composer Mike Rivard, founder and leader of Boston's world-dub-jazz band Club D'Elf. A few years back, Rivard was nearly felled by a pulmonary embolism while seeking spiritual insight in the Amazonian rain forest. A ...

Read "Migration of Silence Into and Out of the Tone World" reviewed by Giuseppe Segala

by Giuseppe Segala

L'attività musicale di William Parker è stata copiosamente documentata da circa centocinquanta dischi, che spaziano in un caleidocopio di gruppi fondati dallo stesso contrabbassista, formazioni cooperative, omaggi, collaborazioni. Ma nessun singolo lavoro, fino a questo momento, aveva focalizzato l'attenzione su un ventaglio di ispirazioni così ampio e completo come si fa ora nei dieci CD del ...
